Chapter 145 Miss and Scholar (2)

It was almost evening when Sun Tu returned to the yamen. Many people who had been ordered by him to go to other victims' homes to inquire about the situation had already returned. However, most of them had no gains. After all, it was a bit long, and who would pay attention to the abnormalities around them?

Only the two families provided a question worth paying attention to - just when their daughter was lost, someone once said that several carriages were passing by. However, the specific style of the carriage could not be explained, and I don’t know if the two were related.

While he was talking, Gao Shan hurried back. As soon as he saw Sun Tu, he reported: "Du Tou, Bei Zhi had just gotten some explanation from Guan's neighbor. Before the accident, Guan Da mentioned to someone that he found a clue, which was several black carriages. Someone also mentioned to us that two days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, there were also black carriages at the entrance of their alley... "

After these words, the people present changed slightly. If the conclusion we just got was suspicious, then with his report, we can confirm that those carriages are indeed related to the thief. This is really an important clue!

But Sun Tu was not too excited. Although things had made progress, there were still too few clues. After all, there were not ten thousand or eight thousand similar carriages in Tokyo. How could it be found? The only thing that can be confirmed is that these cases were done by the same group of people, and it is likely that they were Fan Yanzi whom he had always suspected.

"Du Tou, will we check the carriage next?" Gao Shan looked eager to try.

Sun Tu did not want to slam the enthusiasm of his subordinates, so he nodded and said, "This line is naturally to be investigated, but another matter is more critical, that is, some brothels in the city, especially those that are not run by official brothels. Whether you go directly or indirectly, you can find ways to dig out some clues about pink swallows from their mouths."

All the servants seemed a little embarrassed when they heard this: "Duzhu, this matter is not easy to deal with... Those brothels have backers, and the people from Kaifeng Prefecture may not be able to let them answer honestly. What's more, the whereabouts of the pink swallow have always been hidden, so it's hard to check."

"You just use your means, and I will take care of any difficulties." Sun Tu waved his hand: "This matter is related to Mr. Yu, and even the prefectural governor attaches great importance to it, and I only gave me half a month. If I can't find someone after the expiration, I will certainly be blamed, and you will be responsible for your crimes."

The twenty or so officers suddenly became nervous when they heard what he said, and could only accept this difficult task. Then, Sun Tu waved them and left, but left Gaoshan. After only the two of them were left in the hall, he whispered: "There is one thing you secretly take a few brothers to investigate. Remember, don't tell the people in the yamen, just check with your own brothers."

"Please give me instructions, head of the house." Gao Shan immediately said seriously. He knew that Sun Tu must have important responsibilities for him.

Five days later, in the west of Tokyo, some house.

Although this yard does not cover too much land, the environment is quite good. Not only does it look quiet and quiet, but there are also a few osmanthus trees planted in the courtyard. A gust of wind blows can bring the refreshing fragrance of flowers to the people in the room, making people feel a little drunk even if they don’t drink. Especially when there are people who love each other around you, it is easy for people to forget all their sorrows.

However, at this moment, Yu Dieyu's face still had a hint of sorrow. Even though she held the novel she loved to read the most, she had no interest at all and just flipped it around. Until the door was gently pushed open and a familiar voice sounded from the side, she showed a slightly reluctant smile: "Mr. I have worked hard today..."

"It's not hard work, it's just a trivial matter. Die'er, are you so boring?" Jin Yi said, walking forward, holding Yu Dieyu's slender waist with one hand, and the latter leaned on his shoulder: "Let you only stay here, and I can't always be with you."

"Die'er didn't blame her husband for this."

"Then why do you always look so depressed?"

"I am... Langjun, Die'er feels it's a bit inappropriate to be so sneaky. Since you and I are in love, why don't you propose marriage to my father directly?"

Seeing that she mentioned this, a trace of gloom flashed in Jin Yi's eyes, but he soon hid it: "What is my identity, Jin Yi, how dare I propose marriage to Yu's mansion? Even if Die'er, you really love me, I'm afraid that Old Master Yu and the others will not agree. This was confirmed half a year ago. They not only drove me out of the mansion, but also broke my arm!"

This made Yu Dieyu feel even more guilty, but then he advised: "But now is different from the past. Now you and I have become husband and wife. My father and grandfather love me the most and will definitely not object to us anymore."

"This may be possible. Haven't you promised me before, just waiting for us to have a child and a half of our daughters before we see them?"

"But……"

Seeing what she wanted to say, Jin Yi said with a serious expression: "And this time I brought you from my family is considered a crime of kidnapping. I am afraid that your father and the others have already reported to the official position. When we go there at this time, it will only make them angry. It is possible that I will be taken directly to the prison. Do you have the heart to end up like this?"

"Of course... it won't work." Yu Dieyu immediately shook his head. Jin Yi said again when he saw the opportunity: "So wait a few more days, and when their anger is gone, you and I have our own flesh and blood again. Only then can we go back if they can't break us apart."

"Okay, then follow yours." Yu Dieyu was finally convinced by him. Who told her to love this man so much?

Just as the men and women put aside their worries and were talking affectionately, someone suddenly knocked on the door outside, which made Yu Dieyu feel shy and quickly sat down to the side. Jin Yi stood up unhappily and opened the crack in the door and looked at the person who came and said, "Has I finished what I've done today? Why are you still here to disturb me?"

"Brother Jin, come out and talk, and tell me something important." The person outside the door said with a serious look on his face.

This made Jin Yi obey his orders. He glanced at his wife, then went out and closed the door casually. Then he followed the other party to the side hall and asked, "What happened?"

"Did you buy this yard by yourself?" the man asked suddenly.

"Yes, is there any problem with this?" Jin Yi said in a little puzzled manner.

"Do you know that this will bring great consequences. If someone suspects you, just check it in the tooth shop and you will find it here!" The man said in a bad tone at him.

The so-called Yashang is equivalent to the intermediary in later generations. They can interfere with house transactions, and get some benefits from it. Because Tokyo is a key land in the capital, the real name registration of the land deeds for buying and selling houses, so if the government wants to check, it can indeed find relevant clues from Yashang.

After understanding the key, Jin Yi's face also changed: "This... the government shouldn't be able to find my head, right?"

"Our people just got the news that in the past two days, Kaifeng Prefecture sent people to inquire about house purchases and sales related to Jinyi in several dental shops in the city, especially in the past six months. Although there are many people in this capital with the same name and surname as you, it would be a coincidence to use the time?"

Jin Yi was so panicked: "This...what should I do?" After all, he is not a habitual offender. Once he learns that he is targeted by the government, he will naturally be at a loss: "Do you want us to leave Tokyo as soon as possible?"

"Now you are likely to have been exposed. It is too risky to send you out of Beijing as the boss wants. You can only hide you and her elsewhere. You can clean up quickly and leave with me."

"Okay, I'll go and prepare now." Jin Yi didn't dare to delay, so he immediately returned to the room. After explaining a few words to Yu Dieyu, he packed up some gold, silver and fine softness, pulled her out.

A black carriage was already waiting in the yard. Not long after, the car carried two worried men and women out of the back door and headed forward along the straight street.

Neither Jin Yu nor the man who drove the car did not realize that he had been targeted by someone. Several carriages and pedestrians followed the black carriage forward until they watched it turn into a mansion southwest of the city, someone quietly withdrew and hurried back to Kaifeng Prefecture to report the progress of the matter to Sun Tu.

After receiving the report, Sun Tu stroked his hand: "Very good, they can't help but move themselves first. In this way, we can have more clues. As long as we follow the clues, we can take down the pink swallows behind it in one fell swoop!"

When others said yes, only Ma Huaibang looked worried: "Sun Dutou, isn't it too risky to do this? In fact, since we have found the location of Miss Yu's family early in the morning, we just take the people directly, why bother to do this?"

It turned out that two days ago, Gao Shan had found out that Jin Yi had spent money to buy the house a month ago from a tooth shop in the west of the city. But to their surprise, Sun Tu did not rush to take action, but asked the servants in the yamen to go to the tooth shops in the city to check again.

As for the purpose, it is very clear now, in order to alert the enemy, force the other party out, and then find other places to stay.

Faced with Ma Huaibang's concerns, Sun Tu just smiled: "If I were to find Miss Yu just to find Miss Yu, of course I could do as you said, but this would only make the real prisoners go unpunished. What I want this time is not only to find Miss Yu, but also to uproot these prisoners. Therefore, it is not the time to take action, and I have to wait for more people to show up!"
